At Draw the Lines, when we meet with our fellow Pennsylvanians, we like to ask two questions. First: “What concerns you about your world?” The conversation can go in many different directions: we’ve heard people talk about hot-button cultural issues like guns or immigration, more kitchen table fundamentals like school funding or healthcare, and every day challenges like potholes or snowplows.
We then ask “What’s a possible solution to fix it?” Our goal is to draw a connection between the concerns people have and where solutions can be found. Often, the answer is government, either local, state, or federal. And our republic has empowered voters to choose our leaders to run our government. In other words: who we vote for matters.
